From: City of Charleston

Good Afternoon Cynthia,

This is in response to your original Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”) request dated July 30, 2017 and your follow up correspondence dated August 4, 2017 & February 26, 2020. In all three of those requests, you were requesting information regarding the City of Charleston’s licensing and registration data for pets. The City of Charleston does not possess the information that are being requested and therefore, the City has no responsive documents to produce.

This completes the City of Charleston’s response to your FOIA request and we now consider the matter to be closed.

Thank you,

Kelsey Sanna | Paralegal
